Description
A hearty and flavorful skillet dish featuring russet potatoes, onions, and green peppers in a creamy gravy.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 teaspoon olive oil or avocado oil
- 2 pounds russet potatoes (Sliced into 1 inch rounds or diced into 1 inch cubes, ensure the potatoes are dry)
- 1 cup chopped onions (I used white onions)
- 1/2 cup chopped green peppers
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Creole Seasoning
- salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/4 cup flour
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 1/2 cups broth (Chicken, beef, or vegetable broth)
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat a skillet on medium-high heat. Add the olive oil, sliced potatoes, onions, green peppers, and spices to the pan.
- Sauté for 6-8 minutes until the onions are fragrant. Remove the potatoes, onions, and peppers from the pan and set aside.
- Adjust the heat on the stove to medium. Add the butter and remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet.
- When melted, add in the flour. Add it in stages and stir continuously to avoid clumping.
- Add the whipping cream, broth, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to the pan. Stir until the sauce thickens. Taste the gravy repeatedly and adjust the spices as necessary.
- Add the potatoes, onions, and peppers back to the skillet with the gravy.
- Adjust the heat on the stove to medium-low. Place the lid on the skillet and allow the potatoes to simmer, steam, and soften for 15-20 minutes (or however long it takes for the potatoes to soften).
- Remove the lid from the skillet and flip the potatoes. Allow the potatoes to cook for an additional 5-10 minutes uncovered until fork tender.
- Cool before serving.
Notes
- Using avocado oil instead of olive oil may provide a different flavor profile.
